Obamafare/Reconciliation Supporters: Read this before you proceed!
Today's WSJ summarizes the disengenuousness and HUGE costs to the Democratic Party if BHO and his cohorts proceed.
Note this paragraph:
"President Clinton preferred to use reconciliation to pass HillaryCare in the 1990s, but he was dissuaded by West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd, who argued that it would be an abuse of the process. Mr. Byrd, author of a four-volume history of Senate rules and procedures, told the Washington Post last March that "The misuse of the arcane process of reconciliation—a process intended for deficit reduction—to enact substantive policy changes is an undemocratic disservice to our people and to the Senate's institutional role," specifically citing health reform and cap and trade. "
President Clinton, with all his arrogance and problems, may look like a hero by the time BHO gets done!
